    Having become father of one, I can assure you that “father of two” is not mundane. I can’t fucking measure up to it; in this fucking day and age.

      Sure, daily life for a parent is probably not mundane, but for the rest of it definitely is.

        no, as in “there are not enough fathers of two to make it mundane anymore”

        People are either having zero kids because everything is fucked, one kid because they want to have children and the world isn’t made in a way where someone that’s normal can keep their sanity and raise kids, or they are rich as fuck and busting nuts however many times they want to because it doesn’t matter. Or they’re poor as fuck and have been for generations, so their family is already enourmous, what’s another couple mouths in a sea of hundreds?
